Hagrid M Dec 9, 2018 I'm not a big horror guy. I don't horror often. But if I have to horror, I like a horror that doesn't horror the whole time. If it's blood and carnage and entrails from the start, I'll check out and not care. I need to care about a character and the choices they make, so I like it when a horror film tells a story that I can get on board with, even if it features decisions made that I don't agree with. This film all hinges around a single decision, and it's a decision that has nasty consequences. It made me squirm, it made me avert my eyes, it made me squint so I didn't have to see as much of the screen, but most importantly it made me care about what was happening. Good performances, simple story told in a way that I imagine was relatively inexpensive to film but didn't seem cheap, and it utilized some really nasty bits of body horror with the sound effects to match. Maybe went a little too far with the gore towards the end, but like I said, I'm not a horror guy, and my tolerance for this kind of stuff is far from robust. Also, I will always look favorably on a film with a chewy synth score. See more

Ron G Feb 14, 2018 Much better than I expected from a $2 yellow-cardboard previously viewed DVD from Family Dollar. Entertaining and grim, with a gruesome climax and some biting satire about what young actresses-on-their-way-up want, what we want from them, what prices they sometimes have to pay, and how twisted Hollyweird can get. That's showbiz! See more

Kylo S Feb 3, 2018 Original horror..loved it

Kylo L Nov 10, 2017 A supernatural horror that starts off too slowly detailing the boring life of an aspiring actress and her aspiring friends as they work at fast food restaurants and hit endless auditions. The back half of the movie more than makes up for the front: a startling transformation of the main character pulled off in a masterful performance by Alexandra Essoe. Bloody, gory, deaths soon follow. The rest of the acting isn't great, but the effects help ease that. Terrific. See more

Finn W Oct 31, 2017 Haunting and moody, Starry Eyes is a perverse cautionary tale of horror and greed. How far are you willing to go for fame? Are your dreams worth sacrificing your humanity? Starry Eyes has the answers. See more

Han W Oct 27, 2017 A solid Faustian horror, let down a tad by the 'can't think of an ending' ending...
